Inhibition by ATP and activation by ADP in the regulation of flagellar movement in sea urchin sperm 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
ATP and ADP are known to play inhibitory and activating roles, respectively, in the regulation of dynein motile activity of flagella. To elucidate how these nucleotide functions are related to the regulation of normal flagellar beating, we examined their effects on the motility of reactivated sea urchin sperm flagella at low pH. At pH 7.0-7.2 which is lower than the physiological pH of 8, about 90% of reactivated flagella were motionless at 1 mM ATP, while about 60% were motile at 0.02 mM ATP. The motionless flagella at 1 mM ATP maintained a single large bend or an S-shaped bend, indicating formation of dynein crossbridges in the axoneme. The ATP-dependent inhibition of flagellar movement was released by ADP, and was absent in outer arm-depleted flagella. Similar inhibition was also observed at 0.02 mM ATP when demembranated flagella were reactivated in the presence of Li+ or pretreated with protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). ADP also released this type of ATP-inhibition. In PP1-pretreated axonemes the binding of a fluorescent analogue of ADP to dynein decreased. Under elastase-treatment at pH 8.0, the beating of demembranated flagella at 1 mM ATP and 0.02 mM ATP lasted for approximately 100 and 45 s, respectively. The duration of beating at 0.02 mM ATP was prolonged by Li+, and that at 1 mM ATP was shortened by removal of outer arms. These results indicate that the regulation of on/off switching of dynein motile activity of flagella involves ATP-induced inhibition and ADP-induced activation, probably through phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of outer arm-linked protein(s). 相似文献

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is known to have interesting effects on flagellar motility. Permeabilized and reactivated bull sperm exhibit a marked reduction in beating frequency and a greatly increased beat amplitude in the presence of 1-4 mM ADP. In this study we examined the force production of sperm reactivated with 0.1 mM ATP with and without 1 mM ADP and found that there is little or no resulting change in the stalling force produced by a bull sperm flagella in response to ADP. Because bull sperm bend to a higher curvature after ADP treatment we explored the possibility that ADP-treated sperm flagella are more flexible. We measured the stiffness of 50 μM sodium vanadate treated bull sperm in the presence of 4 mM ADP, but found no change in the passive flagellar stiffness. When we analyzed the torque that develops in ADP-treated sperm at the point of beat reversal we found that the torque developed by the flagellum is significantly increased. Our torque estimates also allow us to calculate the transverse force (t-force) acting on the flagellum at the point of beat direction reversal. We find that the t-force at the switch-point of the beat is increased significantly in the ADP treated condition, averaging 0.7 ± 0.29 nN/μm in 0.1 mM ATP and increasing to 2.9 ± 1.2 nN/μm in 0.1 mM ATP plus 4 mM ADP. This suggests that ADP is exerting its effect on the beat by increasing the tenacity of dynein attachment at the B-subtubule. This could be a direct result of a regulatory effect of ADP on the binding affinity of dynein for the B-subtubule of the outer doublets. This result could also help to explain a number of previous experimental observations, as discussed. 相似文献

The roles of noncatalytic ATP binding and ADP binding in the regulation of dynein motile activity in flagella 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The regulation of dynein activity to produce microtubule sliding in flagella has not been well understood. To gain more insight into the roles of ATP and ADP in the regulation, we examined the effects of fluorescent ATP analogues and fluorescent ADP analogues on the ATPase activity and motile activity of dynein. 21S dynein purified from the outer arms of sea urchin sperm flagella hydrolyzed BODIPY(R) FL ATP (FL-ATP) at 78% of the rate for ATP hydrolysis. FL-ATP at 0.1-1 mM, however, induced neither microtubule translocation on a dynein-coated glass surface nor sliding disintegration of elastase-treated axonemes. Direct observation of single molecules of the fluorescent analogues showed that both the ATP and ADP analogues were stably bound to dynein over several minutes (dissociation rates = 0.0038-0.0082/s). When microtubule translocation on 21S dynein was induced by ATP, the initial increase of the mean velocity was accelerated by preincubation of the dynein with ADP. Similar increase was also induced by the preincubation with the ADP analogues. Even after preincubation with ADP, FL-ATP did not induce sliding disintegration of elastase-treated axonemes. After preincubation with a nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue, AMPPNP (adenosine 5'-(beta:gamma-imido)triphosphate), however, FL-ATP induced sliding disintegration in approximately 10% of the axonemes. These results indicate that both noncatalytic ATP binding and stable ADP binding, in addition to ATP hydrolysis, are involved in the regulation of the chemo-mechanical transduction in axonemal dynein. 相似文献

The mitochondrion of sea urchin sperm is located at the base of the sperm head, and the flagellum extends from the mitochondrion for approximately 40 microM. These sperm have two known flagellar, non-mitochondrial, enzymatic systems to rephosphorylate ADP. The first involves the phosphocreatine shuttle, where flagellar creatine kinase (Sp-CK) uses phosphocreatine to rephosphorylate ADP. The second system, studied in this report, is adenylate kinase (Sp-AK), which uses 2 ADP to make ATP + AMP. Cloning of Sp-AK shows that, like Sp-CK, Sp-AK has three catalytic domains. Sp-AK localizes along the entire flagellum, and most of it is tightly bound to the axoneme. Sp-AK activity and flagellar motility were studied using demembranated sperm. The specific Sp-AK inhibitor Ap5A blocks enzyme activity with an IC50 of 0.41 microM. In 1 mm ADP, flagella reactivate motility in 5 min; 1 microM Ap5A completely inhibits this reactivation. No inhibition of motility occurs in Ap5A when 1 mm ATP is added to the reactivation buffer. The pH optimum for Sp-AK is 7.7, an internal pH at which sperm are fully motile. The pH optimum for Sp-CK is 6.7, an internal pH at which sperm are immotile. In isolated, detergent-permeabilized flagella, assayed at pH 7.6, the Km for Sp-AK is 0.32 mm and the Vmax is 2.80 microM ATP formed/min/mg of protein. When assayed at pH 7.6, the Sp-CK Km is 0.25 mm and the Vmax 5.25. At the measured in vivo concentrations of ADP of 114 microM, at pH 7.6, the axonemal Sp-AK could contribute approximately 31%, and Sp-CK 69%, of the total non-mitochondrial ATP synthesis associated with the demembranated axoneme. Thus, Sp-AK could contribute substantially to ATP synthesis utilized for motility. Alternatively, Sp-AK could function in the removal of ADP, which is a potent inhibitor of dynein ATPase. 相似文献

ADP and ATP were transported in Rickettsia prowazekii by an obligate exchange system without prior hydrolysis. The uptake of ATP and ADP by the obligate exchange system in R. prowazekii was dependent upon the anionic composition of the medium. The rate of transport of ATP was about three times greater than that of ADP in the absence of anions, and the rates of transport of both were about doubled by a variety of anions. However, phosphate anions were able to stimulate greatly the uptake of ADP so that in the presence of these anions, the uptake of ATP and that of ADP were about equal. Millimolar concentrations of anions were required to elicit the stimulation of ADP and ATP transport. The ADP-dependent efflux of ADP and ATP was also greatly stimulated by phosphate anions. The stimulation of ADP and ATP transport required that the anions be present in the external medium, as preincubation of the rickettsiae with phosphate anions was neither necessary nor sufficient. The competitive inhibition of ATP uptake by ADP required phosphate anions, indicating that phosphate anions increased the affinity of ADP for the transport system. The role of phosphate in the regulation of ATP and ADP exchange and its significance are discussed. 相似文献

A new ‘paralyzed’ mutant. OC–10, was isolated in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Dangeard. OC-10 cannot swim and generally shows very little flagellar movement. However, when OC-10 was demembranated, axonemal motility was reactivated in the presence of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP). The beating form of the reactivated axonemes was almost the same as that of the wild-type axonemes. Flagellar regeneration of OC-10 was slower than that of the wild-type. Electron microscopic examination showed no abnormality in OC-10 flagella, but SDS/PAGE revealed that mobility of a flagellar membrane protein was changed and a few bands disappeared in OC-10 flagella, When the mutant was crossed to wild-type to form temporary dikaryon cells with 4 flagella, OC-10 flagella did not regain motility. Tetrad analysis of crosses between OC–10 and wild-type demonstrated a 1:1 segregation on the basis of flagellar motility. From these results, we suppose that OC-10 may be limited in ATP availability inside the flagella, or altered in flagellar membrane proteins important for motility. 相似文献

The effects of adenine nucleotides on pea seed glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) activity were examined as a part of our investigation of the regulation of this octameric plant enzyme. Saturation curves for glutamine synthetase activity versus ATP with ADP as the changing fixed inhibitor were not hyperbolic; greater apparent Vmax values were observed in the presence of added ADP than the Vmax observed in the absence of ADP. Hill plots of data with ADP present curved upward and crossed the plot with no added ADP. The stoichiometry of adenine nucleotide binding to glutamine synthetase was examined. Two molecules of [gamma-32P]ATP were bound per subunit in the presence of methionine sulfoximine. These ATP molecules were bound at an allosteric site and at the active site. One molecule of either [gamma-32P]ATP or [14C]ADP bound per subunit in the absence of methionine sulfoximine; this nucleotide was bound at an allosteric site. ADP and ATP compete for binding at the allosteric site, although ADP was preferred. ADP binding to the allosteric site proceeded in two kinetic phases. A Vmax value of 1.55 units/mg was measured for glutamine synthetase with one ADP tightly bound per enzyme subunit; a Vmax value of 0.8 unit/mg was measured for enzyme with no adenine nucleotide bound at the allosteric site. The enzyme activation caused by the binding of ADP to the allosteric sites was preceded by a lag phase, the length of which was dependent on the ADP concentration. Enzyme incubated in 10 mM ADP bound approximately 4 mol of ADP/mol of native enzyme before activation was observed; the activation was complete when 7-8 mol of ADP were bound per mol of the octameric, native enzyme. The Km for ATP (2 mM) was not changed by ADP binding to the allosteric sites. ADP was a simple competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.05 mM) of ATP for glutamine synthetase with eight molecules of ADP tightly bound to the allosteric sites of the octamer. Binding of ATP to the allosteric sites led to marked inhibition. 相似文献

Dynamic conformational changes of 21 S dynein ATPase coupled with ATP hydrolysis revealed by proteolytic digestion 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Conformational changes of 21 S dynein ATPase from sea urchin sperm flagella were examined by tryptic digestion under physiological conditions. In the presence of 2 mM ATP or ADP plus 100 microM inorganic vanadate (Vi), dynein heavy chains were digested by trypsin into quite different polypeptides from those obtained in other cases (no addition, 2 mM ATP, 4 mM adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate, 4 mM adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-methylene)triphosphate, 2 mM ADP, 100 microM Vi). In the presence of 4 mM adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), however, the digestion pattern was similar to that in the presence of ATP (ADP) and Vi, to a certain extent. In all conditions other than the presence of ATP (ADP) and Vi, 165- and 135-kDa polypeptides were the main products, whereas in the presence of ATP (ADP) and Vi, 200-, 150/148-, and 105/96-kDa peptides were produced and 320-kDa peptide became rather inaccessible to trypsin. The latter digestion pattern was not observed in the absence of divalent cations. These results suggest that, in the ATP hydrolysis cycle, dynein changes its conformation remarkably in the dynein-ADP-Pi state, which is presumably responsible for force generation. 相似文献

Na+-dependent ADP/ATP exchange activity, of a (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase preparation from eel electric organ, was measured in terms of the incorporation of 14C into ATP during incubations with unlabeled ATP and [14C]ADP. Estimates of initial rates of exchange were possible by keeping changes in nucleotide concentrations, from both exchange and extraneous hydrolytic processes, to less than 10%. Under these conditions, increases in MgCl2 concentration, from 0.2 to 3 mM, generally inhibited this exchange activity. The concentrations of free Mg2+, Mg · ATP, and Mg · ADP present, with a range of MgCl2, ATP, and ADP concentrations, were calculated from measured dissociation constants. Inhibition was associated with Mg · ATP as well as with Mg2+, at concentrations from 0.4 to 1 mM (Mg · ADP, in the same concentration range, probably inhibited also). The affinity of the enzyme for these inhibitors is in fair correspondence with demonstrated affinities for Mg2+, Mg · ATP, and Mg · ADP at low affinity substrate sites, measured kinetically. These observations are considered in terms of a dimeric enzyme with high and low affinity substrates sites: ADP/ATP exchange being catalyzed at the high affinity sites, with inhibition occurring through occupancy by Mg2+, Mg · ATP, or Mg · ADP, of the low affinity sites, thereby pulling the reaction process away from those steps involved in exchange. 相似文献

There are at least two major conformations of recA nucleoprotein filaments formed on poly-(deoxythymidylic acid) [poly(dT)], one stabilized by ATP [or adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S)] and one stabilized by ADP. Assembly of filaments in the ATP conformation is much faster than assembly in the ADP conformation. A third conformation may be present in the absence of nucleotides. The ATP and ADP conformations are mutually exclusive. When a mixture of ATP and ADP is present, recA protein binding is a function of the ADP/ATP ratio. Complete dissociation is observed when the ratio becomes 1.0-1.5. When a mixture of ATP and ADP is present at the beginning of a reaction, a transient phase lasting several minutes is observed in which the system approaches the state characteristic of the new ADP/ATP ratio. This phase is manifested by a lag in ATP hydrolysis when ATP is added to preformed ADP filaments, and by a burst in ATP hydrolysis in all other cases. More than 15 ATPs are hydrolyzed per bound recA monomer during the burst phase. The transient phase reflects an end-dependent disassembly process propagated longitudinally through the filament, rather than a slow conformation change in individual recA monomers or a slow exchange of one nucleotide for the other. The hysteresis exhibited by the system provides a number of insights relevant to the mechanism of recA-mediated DNA strand exchange. 相似文献

1. The kinetics of inhibition of brain soluble cytoplasmic hexokinase by ADP were examined in relation to variations in the concentrations of Mg(2+) and ATP. The type of inhibition observed was dependent on the Mg(2+)/ATP ratio. 2. ADP at Mg(2+)/ATP ratios 2:1 exhibited inhibition of the ;mixed' type; at Mg(2+)/ATP ratios 1:1 the inhibition appeared to be competitive with regard to ATP. 3. Inhibition by free ATP was observed when the Mg(2+)/ATP ratio was less than 1:1. The inhibition was also of the ;mixed' type with respect to MgATP(2-). 4. The inhibitions due to ADP and to free ATP were not additive. The results suggested that there may be up to four sites in the soluble enzyme: for glucose, glucose 6-phosphate, ADP and MgATP(2-). 5. The ;free' non-particulate intracellular Mg(2+) concentration was measured and concluded to be about 1.5mm. 6. The concentrations in vivo of Mg(2+) and ATP likely to be accessible to a cytoplasmic enzyme are suggested to be below those that yield maximum hexokinase rates in vitro. The enzymic rates were measured at relevant suboptimum concentrations of Mg(2+) and ATP in the presence of ADP. Calculations that included non-competitive inhibition due to glucose 6-phosphate (56-65% at 0.25mm) resulted in net rates very similar to the measured rates for overall glycolysis. This system may therefore provide a basis for effective control of cerebral hexokinase. 相似文献

Direct measurements of the stiffness (elastic bending resistance) of demembranated sera urchin sperm flagella were made in the presence of MgATP2- and vanadate. Under these conditions, the flagellum is in a relaxed state, with a stiffness of approximately 0.9 x 10(-21) N m2, which is approximately 5% of the stiffness obtained in the rigor state in the absence of MgATP2-. MgADP- dose not substitute for MgATP2- in producing relaxed state. A progressive inhibition of movement is observed after addition of MgATP2- to flagella preincubated with vanadate, in which new bend generation, propagation, and relaxation by straightening are distinguished, depending on the ratio of MgATP2- and vanadate. At appropriate concentrations of vanadate, increase of the velocity of bend propagation is observed at a very low concentration of MgATP2- that is not enough to induce spontaneous beating. Vanadate enhances competitive inhibition of beat frequency by MgADP- but not by ADP3-, ATP4-, or Pi. These observations, and the uncompetitive inhibition of beat frequency by vanadate, indicate that vanadate can only bind to dynein-nucleotide complexes induced by MgATP2- and MgADP-. The state accessible by MgATP2- binding must be a state in which the cross-bridges are detached and the flagellum is relaxed. The state accessible by MgADP- binding must be a cross-bridged state. Bound vanadate prevents the transition between these two states. Inhibition and relaxation by banadate in the presence of MgATP2- results from the specific affinity of vanadate for a state in which nucleotide is bound, rather than a specific affinity for the deteched state. 相似文献

The rate and association constants (kinetic constants) which comprise a seven state cross-bridge scheme were deduced by sinusoidal analysis in chemically skinned rabbit psoas muscle fibers at 20 degrees C, 200 mM ionic strength, and during maximal Ca2+ activation (pCa 4.54-4.82). The kinetic constants were then used to calculate the steady state probability of cross-bridges in each state as the function of MgATP, MgADP, and phosphate (Pi) concentrations. This calculation showed that 72% of available cross-bridges were (strongly) attached during our control activation (5 mM MgATP, 8 mM Pi), which agreed approximately with the stiffness ratio (active:rigor, 69 +/- 3%); active stiffness was measured during the control activation, and rigor stiffness after an induction of the rigor state. By assuming that isometric tension is a linear combination of probabilities of cross-bridges in each state, and by measuring tension as the function of MgATP, MgADP, and Pi concentrations, we deduced the force associated with each cross-bridge state. Data from the osmotic compression of muscle fibers by dextran T500 were used to deduce the force associated with one of the cross-bridge states. Our results show that force is highest in the AM*ADP.Pi state (A = actin, M = myosin). Since the state which leads into the AM*ADP.Pi state is the weakly attached AM.ADP.Pi state, we confirm that the force development occurs on Pi isomerization (AM.ADP.Pi --> AM*ADP.Pi). Our results also show that a minimal force change occurs with the release of Pi or MgADP, and that force declines gradually with ADP isomerization (AM*ADP -->AM.ADP), ATP isomerization (AM+ATP-->AM*ATP), and with cross-bridge detachment. Force of the AM state agreed well with force measured after induction of the rigor state, indicating that the AM state is a close approximation of the rigor state. The stiffness results obtained as functions of MgATP, MgADP, and Pi concentrations were generally consistent with the cross-bridge scheme. 相似文献

A basic feature of the movement of eukaryotic flagella is oscillation. Although flagellar oscillation is thought to be regulated by a self-regulatory feedback system including the mechanical signal of bending itself, the mechanism regulating the dynein motile activity to produce oscillation is not well understood. To elucidate the mechanism, we developed a new experimental system which allowed us to analyze the conditions necessary for the induction of oscillation. When a mechanical signal of bending or a pulse was applied by micromanipulation to a demembranated motionless sea urchin sperm flagellar axoneme at very low ATP concentrations (1-3 microM), a localized pair of bends was induced. The bend formation was often followed by further responses including propagation of the distal bend of paired bends, growth and propagation of the paired bends, and cyclical beating. The beating was induced at 2.0 microM or higher concentrations of ATP, but appeared even at 1.5 microM ATP if a few muM of ADP was also present. When the proximal half of a flagellum was attached to a microneedle, beating could not be induced in the distal free region at 2 microM ATP. These results suggest that mechanical signal is involved in the mechanism regulating the motile activity of dynein to produce oscillation. Our results also showed that the presence of a small amount of ADP and the axial difference along the flagellum are factors essential for the induction of flagellar oscillation. 相似文献

The possibility that the availability of ATP may affect the rate of synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate (measured as citrulline) by carbamoyl phosphate synthase (ammonia) was studied using respiring isolated rat liver mitochondria incubated with added ADP, with hexokinase, glucose, and ATP, or with atractylate, in order to enhance or prevent the efflux of mitochondrial ATP. The effects of these agents were compared with those on oxaloacetate synthesis from pyruvate. Addition of hexokinase, glucose, and ATP to isolated mitochondria resulted in an inhibition of citrulline synthesis which was proportional to the amounts of glucose 6-phosphate formed; under these conditions, matrix ATP and ATP/ADP tended to decrease. The addition of increasing amounts of ADP also resulted in proportional inhibition of citrulline synthesis, but in this case the matrix content of ATP and ADP increased, and ATP/ADP decreased very slightly. In the presence of atractylate, citrulline synthesis was maximal despite a 30% decrease in matrix ATP and ATP/ADP. These effects were observed whether pyruvate, succinate, glutamate, or β-OH-butyrate was used as the respiratory substrate. ADP, the hexokinase system, and atractylate had qualitatively similar but much less pronounced effects on oxaloacetate synthesis from pyruvate. Within the limits of variation observed in these experiments, the rate of synthesis of citrulline appears not to be affected by the matrix content of total ATP, total ADP, or by ATP/ADP. It is affected, however, by the velocity of translocation of ATP into the extramitochondrial medium. These findings suggest that carbamoyl phosphate synthase (ammonia) may be loosely associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane, and may compete for ATP with the ATP-ADP translocator to an extent determined by the extramitochondrial demands for ATP. 相似文献

Flagellar dynein generates forces that produce relative shearing between doublet microtubules in the axoneme; this drives propagated bending of flagella and cilia. To better understand dynein's role in coordinated flagellar and ciliary motion, we have developed an in situ assay in which polymerized single microtubules glide along doublet microtubules extruded from disintegrated bovine sperm flagella at a pH of 7.8. The exposed, active dynein remain attached to their respective doublet microtubules, allowing gliding of individual microtubules to be observed in an environment that allows direct control of chemical conditions. In the presence of ATP, translocation of microtubules by dynein exhibits Michaelis-Menten type kinetics, with V(max) = 4.7 +/- 0.2 microm/s and K(m) = 124 +/- 11 microM. The character of microtubule translocation is variable, including smooth gliding, stuttered motility, oscillations, buckling, complete dissociation from the doublet microtubule, and occasionally movements reversed from the physiologic direction. The gliding velocity is independent of the number of dynein motors present along the doublet microtubule, and shows no indication of increased activity due to ADP regulation. These results reveal fundamental properties underlying cooperative dynein activity in flagella, differences between mammalian and non-mammalian flagellar dynein, and establish the use of natural tracks of dynein arranged in situ on the doublet microtubules of bovine sperm as a system to explore the mechanics of the dynein-microtubule interactions in mammalian flagella. 相似文献

Yeast submitochondrial particles, in a Pi- and NADH-dependent reaction, produced low concentrations of free ATP in the absence of added ADP. This formation of free ATP, as measured by the luciferin-luciferase method, was strongly stimulated by oligomycin. For maximal stimulation, oligomycin was to be added not earlier than 5-10 min after the addition of NADH. Upon addition of antimycin or FCCP the system was completely inhibited. The amount of free ATP formed corresponded to one-third of the amount of bound ATP in submitochondrial particles. The stimulatory effect of oligomycin disappeared if the submitochondrial particles were spun down after oligomycin stimulation and then resuspended in the reaction medium, whereas submitochondrial particles with no oligomycin added initially were stimulated by oligomycin after the same procedure. A different picture emerged with addition of ADP. If the submitochondrial particles were preenergized with NADH in the presence of oligomycin before the addition of ADP the formation of free ATP upon subsequent addition of ADP was inhibited by oligomycin. In the presence of oligomycin, but lacking preenergization with NADH, a stimulation of free ATP formation was achieved with added ADP. A possible explanation for the stimulating effect of oligomycin on ATP formation in the absence of added ADP is that it enhances the release of bound ATP in an energy-requiring process. The release of only about one-third of the bound ATP could indicate that one of three nucleotide-binding subunits involved in the mechanism of ATP formation by ATP synthase is in a state suitable for such an energy-dependent release of ATP. 相似文献

D-fructose (10 mM) augments, in rat pancreatic islets, insulin release evoked by 10 mM D-glucose. Even in the absence of D-glucose, D-fructose (100 mM) displays a positive insulinotropic action. It was now examined whether the insulinotropic action of D-fructose could be attributed to an increase in the ATP content of islet cells. After 30-60 min incubation in the presence of D-glucose and/or D-fructose, the ATP and ADP content was measured by bioluminescence in either rat isolated pancreatic islets (total ATP and ADP) or the supernatant of dispersed rat pancreatic islet cells exposed for 30 s to digitonine (cytosolic ATP and ADP). D-fructose (10 and 100 mM) was found to cause a concentration-related decrease in the total ATP and ADP content and ATP/ADP ratio below the basal values found in islets deprived of exogenous nutrient. Moreover, in the presence of 10 mM D-glucose, which augmented both the total ATP content and ATP/ADP ratio above basal value, D-fructose (10 mM) also lowered these two parameters. The cytosolic ATP/ADP ratio, however, was increased in the presence of D-glucose and/or D-fructose. Under the present experimental conditions, a sigmoidal relationship was found between such a cytosolic ATP/ADP ratio and either (86)Rb net uptake by dispersed islet cells or insulin release from isolated islets. These data provide, to our knowledge, the first example of a dramatic dissociation between changes in total ATP content or ATP/ADP ratio and insulin release in pancreatic islets exposed to a nutrient secretagogue. Nevertheless, the cationic and insulinotropic actions of d-glucose and/or d-fructose were tightly related to the cytosolic ATP/ADP ratio. 相似文献

Resealed human red blood cell ghosts were prepared to contain a range of ADP concentrations at fixed ATP concentrations and vice versa. ATP/ADP ratios ranging from approximately 0.2 to 50 were set and maintained (for up to 45 min) in this system. ATP and ADP concentrations were controlled by the addition of either a phosphoarginine- or phosphocreatine-based regenerating system. Ouabain-sensitive unidirectional Na efflux was determined in the presence and absence of 15 mM external K as a function of the nucleotide composition. Na/K exchange was found to increase to saturation with ATP (K 1/2 approximately equal to 250 microM), whereas Na/Na exchange (measured in K-free solutions) was a saturating function of ADP (K 1/2 approximately equal to 350 microM). The elevation of ATP from approximately 100 to 1,800 microM did not appreciably affect Na/Na exchange. In the presence of external Na and a saturating concentration of external K, increasing the ADP concentration at constant ATP was found to decrease ouabain-sensitive Na/K exchange. The decreased Na/K exchange that still remained when the ADP/ATP ratio was high was stimulated by removal of external Na. Assuming that under normal substrate conditions the reaction cycle of the Na/K pump is rate-limited by the conformational change associated with the release of occluded K [E2 X (K) X ATP----E1 X ATP + K], increasing ADP inhibits the rate of these transformations by competition with ATP for the E2(K) form. A less likely alternative is that inhibition is due to competition with ATP at the high-affinity site (E1). The acceleration of the Na/K pump that occurs upon removing external Na at high levels of ADP evidently results from a shift in the forward direction of the transformation of the intermediates involved with the release of occluded Na from E1P X (Na). Thus, the nucleotide composition and the Na gradient can modulate the rate at which the Na/K pump operates. 相似文献

The release of only about one-third of the bound ATP could indicate that one of three nucleotide-binding subunits involved in the mechanism of ATP formation by ATP synthase is in a state suitable for such an energy-dependent release of ATP. 相似文献
